Astros Make It 4 Straight with 5-4 Win
Houston and Minnesota took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

The Houston Astros picked up a win at Target Field, downing the Minnesota Twins, 5-4. On the mound for Houston was right-hander Carlos Concepción, who played a pivotal role in the win. The Astros, now 4-9, have not found much traction so far in 2070.

Houston needed the clutch hitting of Pierluigi Deangelo to seal the deal. The shortstop swatted a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Astros on top, 5-4. For the game, Deangelo had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"It feels good, just a great win all around," Deangelo said after the game.
